Chapter 664 Fighting Wind

She gasped, recoiling as she heard his words, "I knew you since we were young!" Charlie pointed at her face, "But this time, you've crossed the line! Bela!" He jumped back, lightning crackling from his shoulders.

Black veins bulged on Bela's neck, growing to her face as the chair she sat on got crushed. She glared at Charlie, lifting her hand, and growled in a booming, deep voice. "To think you found out! Human!" She lunged forward.

"Die! For messing my plans!" Bela swung her fist, piercing Charlie's stomach. "Do you think someone like you could beat me?"

Charlie smiled, "I don't think. I do," He grabbed her by the face, bursting in a lightning spark and burning the whole office.

Bela coughed, her body half-charred as Charlie fell down, but one of his rings shattered, and he immediately stood unharmed.

"Since I knew you a decade ago, you've always been weird. You even poisoned me twice and tried to get a witch to curse me into loving you." He glared at her, "I ignored everything, thinking that it'll get better, you'll get a brain, I can fix her, I thought." Lightning crackled from his hands and up to his head as he pulled a small wand from his pocket.

"But making a deal is something I'll never forgive! You'll mess the lives of everyone around you," He pointed the wand at her, "And knowing how devils work. Does that woman Roberta have anything to do with you? No, I think it's one of the fiend's targets,"

Bela twitched, standing up as her skin healed, "You're... too smart for your own good,"

"I know it. She's getting under my protection, and whatever you may be, Roberta or the devil, I wish you both rot in hell," A lightning bolt jumped from his wand, heading toward her.

Bela swung her hand, smacking the lightning away as if it were an object. Her moves were getting faster and stronger, farther than what Charlie could see or predict.

CRACK! The half-burned door burst as Aella jumped inside, blocking deflecting a punch from Bela that was about to shatter Charlie's head.

"The dragon's wife?" The devil controlling Bela's body growled.

A wave of ice rushed from the door and froze Bela's legs to the ground as Isdis rushed toward her brother.

"More bugs..." The devil grunted.

"Devil! End the contract!" Aella clenched her fist, "Zephyr! Grant me your power! ARA! ARA! ARA!" She swung forward, one punch after another, and a barrage of hits fell upon Bela's face and chest, sending her flying through the window.

Before Bela could fly far from the wind, Aella flew out and grabbed her by the face, smacking her on the wall surrounding the castle and dragging her around.

"Aggressive, I see someone have an influence on you," The devil growled, grabbing Aella's hand and kicking her away.

"But, you're..." Before he could finish, he gasped, seeing Aella already pointing a bow at him. "Wait..." He could swing fast to deflect lighting, but knowing how fast and how many wind-infused arrows Aella might dish out at once, he doesn't have enough leverage or support to jump away in time.

BAM! Tens of magic wind arrows burst out of Aella's bow in a cone that spanned over four meters where Bela was, cutting all escape routes.

"Tch!" Bela jumped away, two arrows stuck on her shoulder, which quickly faded away. ^My curse is waning. This body won't hold my power for longer. I need to finish this quickly.^

Bela pointed toward Aella.

"Herald of wind, Aella! Today your power shall be mine, regret your choices in hell," Chains emerged from her back, lunging toward Aella like snakes. [Chains Of Domination]

[Ice wave] Isdis swings her blade, banging on a stone to get a loud ringing son. From the swing, a wave of ice rushed forward and froze the chains in place.

"Get your spells off her!" Isdis shouted, lifting the flute and blowing in it. With a gentle whistle, tens of soldiers jumped from the windows with crossbows, and more of them lined on the walls, getting the castle's defenses ready. "I'm taking control! You're beyond saving, Bela!"

The soldiers pointed the mounted ballistae at Bela, about to fire.

"You control nothing! Human!" The devil growled, "I'm the master of domination. My chains, extend!"

The chains grew long with red-hit sparks, melting parts of the ice as they flew toward Aella in the blink of an eye, chaining her down.

"Your powers are mine!" The devil growled. ^No, I feel some resistance. This elf is already enslaved? Did they know of my power? No, humans' magic can't beat mine, I'll plow through their pathetic binding spell,^

The devil's curse tried to break Aella's slave contract, but it soon hit two massive walls.

^The other person in the contract, it's dragon?^ The devil growled, ^Of course it's him.^ His curse struggled to remove Arad from Aella's contract. Like a kid clinging to his toy and screaming, Arad's soul held to Aella's with claws and teeth, not letting go.

"Stupid Brat! Let go, you're already asleep!" The devil growled, sending more chains. Before they could reach Aella, the chains binding her shattered.

^A second power, it's that spirit?! Is she getting her power back?^ The devil grunted as he felt Zephyr's magic shatter his curse inside and free Aella.

Aella lifted her hand, "I'm the pure spirit of the sky, dancing upon the clouds. The calm breeze and howling wind, tempest and fury, arrows upon the sky, raining on the sign of war,"

The devil jumped back, ^She's chanting? In the middle of a fast fight with me? Doesn't she fear I might strike her down? No, she's getting a massive spell ready and is confident in that woman's ability to protect her,^

The massive bolts of ballistae fell upon Bela, forcing her to run around. ^This woman's body won't last long, it's far too weak to contain even a fraction of my power.^ The devil stared toward Isdis, "You die first! Human!"

[Wind Expansion:...]

A strong gale started pulling the devil toward Aella as her expansion formed. He looked at her, "You're annoying, did anyone tell you that?"

[...Arrows' Howling Tempest]

Thousands of wind arrows appeared behind Aella and started spinning around her like a tornado, forming a 10-meter sphere of flying arrows, each capable of killing a large monster.

"Fool! Such a weak and simple expansion won't harm me!" The devil swung his hand, "Dance, my chains!"

[Chains of Domination]

Tens of chains emerged from Bela's body, blasting the arrows away as they swung like tentacles.

In the building, Charlie stared down, gasping, "They are fast, I can barely see their spells," His eyes couldn't track either Aella's arrows or the devil's chairs. All he can see is the two of them facing each other, menacingly with sparks flying everywhere.

"Tch!" Isdis grunted, like her brother, she can't follow the two. ^I'm but a human with nothing special. I want to cast spells, but I feel like they'll only get in Aella's way now,^

SWOSH! Out of nowhere, Gin flew in behind Bela with a clenched fist.

^Fuck! It's that silver drakaina,^ The devil growled, trying to dodge her fist, ^I can't, I'm too slow in this body. I can't turn my spell off or I'll get ripped apart by the arrows, but I can't dodge fast enough with it active! I'm stuck!^ His mind raced, but it quickly calmed down as Gin's fist smacked the back of Bela's head.

Aella took the chance to join in, swinging her fist toward the Bela's chest.

"ARA! ARA! ARA! ARA! ARA! ARA!" The two unleashed an endless barrage of fists toward Bela's body from both sides.

Gin stared at Aella as they pummeled Bela into a pulp between them. ^She's keeping with my speed? I might be weaker and slower in humanoid form, but she's an elf, to think she'll move like this,^ Gin blinked, ^I see, she's using the wind to decrease the friction on her body, while also pushing her fists with it. As long as she's in contact with air, she'll get several buffs,^

With a double fist, they sent Bela toward the wall.

As Bela smacked on the wall, she fell face first, bleeding as the devil's presence faded from her body. The devil's presence in her had reinforced her body a bit, but not enough for him to beat Aella and Gin combined. Now that Bela got close to death, he ran away not to die with her.

"Heal and lock her in the main church. Prepare all the necessary rituals to deter devils from touching her again until we figure this out," Gin shouted and several nuns rushed in to treat Bela.

Aella sighed, taking a deep breath.

"Aella," Gin approached her, "What's going on? Weren't you here to kill Charlie?"

"No," Aella shook her head, "We came to stop that fiend, but we wanted to do it without harming that woman..." She looked at the bloodied Bela.

Isdis jumped down from the building with Charlie, "We didn't expect a brother to already know about it," She pointed at Charlie with her thumb.

"I'm not stupid," Charlie said, "Do think I'm a bald squirrel that lost his nuts?"

"You're balding a bit and that's a fact," Isdis giggled, "Receding hairline,"

"Leave my hair alone," He growled.

"You're the one who started it," Isdis laughed.

Charlie looked at Bela as the nuns took her away, "I used to sneak and play with her since we were kids. She's always been a bit crazy here and there. I thought that might be a product of how she lived, so I thought I might be able to help her as the prince," He sighed, "But contracting a devil was unexpected,"

"You cleared your quarter to fight her?" Isdis looked at him, "We didn't replace any maid inside,"

"Yeah, I told them to leave for an hour or two," Charlie looked at the maids staring with terrified faces from the windows, "I didn't want them to get caught in my fight with the devil, Bela was my problem,"

"That was risky," Gin stared at him, "You could've asked for my of Kin's help. We can't interfere with royal struggles, but we'll gladly help you clean a devil."

****

FUCK! The devil growled in his layer, punching his chair's armrest. "How insulting! To think I'll be fended off by maids of all things," He screamed, "How did they discover my plan? Do they have a spy here, what's it's your game, Zephyr!" He growled.

"Master?" A devil looked at him. "Is there a problem?"

The devil growled, sending a chain that split the devil in half. "Shut up! Slave!" The devil stood and walked away from his throne.

"I'm the devil of domination! Those mortal insects won't force me to move as they like! It's unacceptable, unforgivable!" He growled with a twisting face.
